proposed to create, on the basis of the military service of law and order, essentially the same military service of law and order, but with expanded powers in order to help the sbi, which now by law must investigate offenses and crimes that committed in the army. what is important to emphasize is that the powers of the military police will be extended exclusively to servicemen of the armed forces of ukraine and reservists who are at the meeting. this is the main thing. second, it will not require additional expenses from the budget, because the military police is created on the basis of the military service of law and order. f-16 fighters will be deployed in ukraine, we are talking about planes that will be provided by the united states. this was stated by white house national security adviser jake salevan. according to him, in the case threats ukraine can use the provided american air defense systems, in particular, to destroy russia. their planes even

meanwhile, the united states of america is doing everything possible to stop the supply of weapons to russia from iran and north korea. this was stated by us secretary of state anthony blinken, commenting on putin's visit to the dprk. blinken condemned north korea and iran for supplying ammunition to russia. he also urged china to stop supporting russia. defense industrial base. the us secretary of state added that they will do everything to stop the supply of resources to russia from iran and north korea. 3,500 air defense components were handed over to our armed forces. a batch of spare parts was seized from underground warehouses in the kyiv region. the operation was carried out by the security service together with the national police. we are talking about spare parts for anti-aircraft missiles. air defense systems and

artillery systems, as well as engines for armored vehicles. illegal warehouses belonged to a local company engaged in the trade of specialized possession. for military equipment. the extras planned to sell spare parts illegally, without reports and documentation. ilky tried to sell this lot to the state for uah 70 million. while, according to the conducted examinations, the real cost is 23 million 400 thousand uah. that is, the difference between their actual value and the amount of the planned sale is uah 54 million. in particular, more than 3,500 spare parts of components for missiles were seized. and artillery equipment of air defense systems, air defense devices, devices observation and sights. according to the results of the examination, it was established that the value of the seized item is uah 13,300. frauds involving coal mining in the lviv region exposed a group of officials who stole

it really wasn't easy, we 've been coming for a long time, i already said it at the conference that it's impossible to watch this footage, the replay of the european championship without... with a lump in my throat or tears when i watched it online, i honestly say, with tears in my eyes, but only an athlete can understand an athlete, how hard it is, how long it takes. seven were trained in bullet shooting masters of sports of the international class, class, there were world record holders, world medalists, european championships, 69 medals throughout history, i just lead, as they say... with a range shooting coach, this statistic is 68 and maxim now four medals present this is 70 more than 73 medals already at the world level at the european level . espresso tv channel calls to join the project from

the modern russian-ukrainian war is a technological competition, an unprecedented use of unmanned aerial vehicles in the sky and at sea. on the ground is already forcing the countries of the world to change their military doctrines. in this war, ukraine became the first state in the world to create a new type of military, the force of unmanned systems. the creation of unmanned systems forces is precisely about the fact that no, yes, we stopped preparing, we started dictating the rules, we are starting to dictate the rules, and just the first of these steps is the creation precisely a new type of forces, yes, these are forces, unmanned forces of the armed forces of ukraine. but if there are drones, and countermeasures against them. the only way to neutralize an enemy drone is to sever its communication with the operator. to do this,

there are means of radio-electronic warfare, or simply slaves. the fighters of the bilotserkiv 134th battalion were in great need of such technology, so the zhivago charity fund decided to help the boys and provide them with rebs. i wish you health, the fighters of the 134th separate territorial defense battalion express their sincere thanks for the provided stations reb fund uzhevago. at the moment... these stations are already protecting the lives of our fighters, together for victory we thank you once again, glory to ukraine and see you soon on our native land. glory to the nation, death to you. the zhivago family foundation regularly donates drones, generators and cars to the military. the information day of the tv channel continues, well, today is the day of the russian... interventionists are trying to launch a missile attack on the poltava region, this is reported by the press center of the air

force command of the rocket through the kharkiv region in the direction poltava region, myrhorod in shelter, another missile in poltava region, the course of poltava was specified in the press center of the air force. well, let's remind you that tonight the russians directed a large number of shaheds that they fired at the lviv region, in particular, enemy shaheds were hit near lviv, and the damage was caused by this strike. exceed uah 20 million, one of the wounded is in a serious condition, but this is the situation, and also in lviv yemeria they say that the city starts paying compensation for each destroyed window by 12:00 donate hryvnias per door up to 800 hryvnias, plus two private companies that suffered losses receive a certificate for half a hryvnia. yes, well, we will now add oleg katkov, a military man, to our ablution. expert editor-in-chief of defense express. glory to ukraine. mr. oleg, we congratulate you.

ramoslav, thank you for the invitation. well, let's sum up the results of the swiss summit. yes, we understand that some states did not support it. let there be few of them, let them not be flagships. well, but how do you assess the consequences in general in what is called provision and support of ukraine. that is, as a result of the swiss summit. we understand that the summit was not about ammunition, not about... weapons, but the key story is the climate in support, yes, and it seems that jordan is falling out, so to speak, from both countries that support us, you have the word, yes, well, in fact, it seems to me a very positive moment, because even some countries, which are among those that do not send weapons to ukraine, speak out, and to be honest, they even directly reproduce russian narratives, but they still ... came to the civilized world, language it is primarily about hungary and slovakia, which also directly signed this

communique, and the final one, some countries did not sign, and well, in part, everything is logical there, because we are talking about countries that are members of the so-called brics, where russia is a member federation, we are talking about saudi arabia in particular, and this is actually, well, let's say this, if... to conclude that the country did not sign this communique, then it will not supply weapons, in fact, it can be considered the biggest such loss, because precisely saudi arabia in theory, exclusively in theory, but could be a donor, for example, mirage 2000, which is going to be transmitted by france, as well as patriot, which many countries in the world are actively looking for, because it is the first to shoot mirage. and secondly, he has a really large number of patriots, being

an operator, well, according to various sources, the information is extremely limited, but roughly there we are talking about more than two dozen patriot batteries in different versions of pak-2, pak-3, but when it comes to where to get patriot, quite often the whole country appeared, and in relation to jordan, here the example is quite the opposite interesting, related to the fact that the country actually strengthens the armed forces of ukraine to a certain extent, in particular with publicly known ones. officially , it is precisely from jordan that the popular cheetah systems were purchased, and with us money they are being restored and... to ukraine, that is, there is even such a moment here that directly indicates that some countries that will participate in strengthening , but they may not sign some document there, this is not, i.e. not a correlation, such a situation, well, after all, there is another example when the signatories are, for example, israel, which blocks even re-export, or the same switzerland that blocks

the re-export of its weapons to ukraine. mr. oleg, look, it would be interesting to also discuss with you... er, our efforts to eliminate the russian kamikaze drones, i mean the lancet, which our defense forces first destroyed with a drone, an fpv drone, a regular fpv drone. it's about the signum unit of the 93rd separate mechanized brigade kholodny yar, they showed an episode with the successful interception of this kamika dzelenset drone, and it is said that it happened west of klishchiivka, about 6 km from front line can you how can a military expert assess how skilled this operator of this fpividron must be to be able to do such a thing? yes, that is, in any case, we are not talking about the fact that this is a mass absolutely some kind of generic case, no, here is an exceptional case, which in general became the first documented case when a lancet is affected with the help of a fpividron, i am on the very

video that was made public, then it starts with the fact that you are like, well, there is already such confirmation officially. ukraine uses drones for to monitor the airspace and look for enemy reconnaissance planes, and a zala-type scout was first recorded there, and the zala and the lancets, they usually work very closely, that is , one indicates the targets for the other, and obviously already at this stage it began activity is relatively under the raising of drones to intercept the hall, but the information began that... a lancet appeared in the sky, and here it is a difficult question, how much more skill is here, how much more military skill, but the fact is that the interception of the lancet took place at opposite speeds, that is, the lancet lies at a speed of more than a hundred kilometers, and even if the phividron simply had zero horizontal

speed, it only climbed there, that is , to the cameras, that is, the operator had very little time to... to try to find here to reach the point where their trajectories will converge, and this really, well, first of all, speaks of the exceptional skill of the operator, because to do this we can see the quality of the pictures and all the rest, that is, to somehow see and find the point crossing, and now it is as if there was an aerial detonation, of course it did not hit the cameras, because the drone broke up and it already hit the lancet itself, the fragments of which... were found, er, that is, on the one hand, there is a wonderful fact, proof that such interceptions are possible, and it is also a fairly logical conclusion that in conditions where such an interception directly depends on such things as, well, in any case, a certain amount of luck, plus the exceptional skill of the operator, coherence, so what you need to know and get accurate guidance,

where is the target flying from, what is its course, what is its height, what is its speed, to guess the moment of takeoff... to get to the interception point is an exceptional skill and achievement, and well, just communication at the level of units is very correctly set and very effective, but all this but it can be simplified to a certain extent if we talk about the use of modern technologies such as machine vision, when a drone, for example, can already independently detect a target against the background of the sky, and this is a great option when, for example, this particular drone, another, for example , exactly... or the intelligence agency of ten or hall, such an fpv drone, will it be located on its own, auto-escort on its own, and the operator will only make decisions about destruction, the computer will already calculate the meeting point and everything else, mr. editor, putin and kimchen, yes, visit the russian dictator to

the north korean dictator, and accordingly we are interested in what putin could pull in his teeth from there, perhaps. some additional contracted capacities of north korean military factories, perhaps what the koreans have in warehouses, and in general, how do you assess the prospects and quantities of what putin can bring from north korea? i am afraid that from the dprk he will bring a somewhat new world order in the sense of a new, officially formalized axis of evil, the fact is that... this visit is not about, well , not about missiles from the dprk, not about missiles from the dprk, he is about, a strategic partnership agreement has already been signed there, which... provides for mutual security guarantees, i.e. in the event of an attack on the dprk, er, the russian federation must act on its side, well, precisely as a military, i.e. take place

conditional aggression, we must understand that in the conditions of, let's say, the work of the ministry of truth of the russian federation, it is the dprk that will be the aggressor, it will fight back, well , that is, well, we know perfectly well what they say in moscow, that it is.. .ukraine attacked russia and everything else, that is, it will be the same with regard to the dprk, there the dprk attacks south korea, the russian federation fits in there and starts fighting against south korea, then it comes out. we are talking about the integration of apparently defense-industrial complexes, because things were said about the transfer of weapons and technologies, and we understand that it is already going there and that the missiles from the dprk, which are very unexpected, and we are talking about intercontinental ballistic missiles. missiles that are carriers of nuclear warheads, and somehow they magically began to fly very efficiently, that is, we are talking about the use of obsolete technologies, which the russian federation apparently transfers, this

process will only be deepened. there were threats from the kremlin that they would supply weapons to the country, which are very threatening to the civilized world. north korea is such a threat because it aims its missiles both against a civilized one. in the south, as well as against japan, i.e. we are talking about the formalization of an official union between these two totalitarian countries, because there is obviously no one in the russian federation to sign such similar documents with at the moment, and about the fact, mr. editor, that koreans are north korean people will be given to the russian interventionists, but i am interested in the issue of personnel replenishment , yes, because russia very much likes to fight with other people's hands, and... there, i don't know, 10, 20, 30 thousand, or how many there are in the northern korea could plan, then it would send them, and the question is what is in their warehouses, we remember that the north, the north

koreans supplied the russians with artillery shells of not too high quality, but in sufficient quantity, and accordingly, warehouses and people, relatively exactly the possibility of direct participation of the north korean military, i would not rule out such a possibility. but to say that it will happen tomorrow or the day after tomorrow and already 100%, well, no one will be able to, again, i do not exclude such a possibility, because the russian federation is already actively hiring, that is, mercenaries, directly pays for the services of mercenaries from the countries of africa and asia, it is already happening, i don’t see any obstacles, if there are any borders there, citizens of the dprk will go to fight for money in the russian federation, maybe my question will seem absurd, but... also often in the in the kitchens , ukrainians ask themselves this question and discuss it, why, for example, ukraine also cannot afford to take certain

military private armies. if we understand correctly, the main problem is finances and the ability to pay them high salaries, if they would agree to this, but there is such a strong russian influence there that we cannot compete for these personnel in general. we say in the legal status that mercenary is an international criminal offense, that's the main problem, the status of so-called private military companies, it's heavily regulated by international law, and at the end of the day, usually when it comes to, well, so- called international military companies, they usually provided functions specialists in certain fields, in particular the protection of certain areas, that is, as security, security functions, as instructors and as, for example, conventional military consulting, let's call it something like this, that is, it is about civilized

private companies, if you can say so, that is, those that operate in western countries, and that , what the russian federation is doing, we are talking about mercenaries, when people go to kill for money, this is a criminal crime, an international card crime. ok, let's talk about these civilized private armies, the west. ukraine simply cannot afford them? ukraine cannot, well, let's say so, these are private companies can make money much safer than actually fighting, they usually provide security, training and military consulting services, rather than directly participating in hostilities. the same famous black waters, for example, as one of the most famous private military companies in the world, it did not fight, it occupied. protection thank you for explaining this, it is very important. ugh. oleg katkov , military expert, chief editor of defenses-express, was in touch with us. now we are going on a short break, but for now there will be a break in ours.
